 The Super-League is about Your team is almost certainly going to fail at that, and even if they did win, there would then be the matter of the unwinnable Macho Man challenge... So, pick teams, do your best, and, if you want or need more advice or guidance, go to the Super-League Discord. New Team Form Fill out Now This needs to be done to secure a spot in the Super-League Teams Selected: Pick eleven points worth of teams (twelve points for people who have never owned a Super-League team before), spread out over as many teams as you'd like. Hell, you could have eleven one-point teams if you really wanted. Fill Out Soon These items also need to be filled out, but not immediately, just as soon as you have some spare time Team Name: Team Logo (150x150 preferred): Home City: Home Stadium: (Give me the dimensions and playing surface if it's a custom stadium) DH Preference: 30-Man Roster: 25 in the majors, 5 in the minors Lineups: Pitching Rotation: Strategy (Rate on a scale from -5 to +5) Hit and Run: Sacrifice Bunt: Squeeze Play: Trying for extra bases: Stealing Bases: Aggressively Tagging Up: Pitch Outs (to prevent stolen bases): Giving Intentional Walks: Pitching Around Good Hitters: Bringing the Infield In: Guarding the Lines: Making Cutoff Throws: Bringing in Pinch Hitters: Bringing in Pinch Runners: Bringing in Defensive Replacements: Starting Pitchers on Short Rest: Letting pitchers pitch throw trouble: Letting Pitchers rack up high pitch counts: The Big, Big List of Feeder Teams Pick eleven points of feeder teams, twelve if you've never owned a team in the Super-League. 7 points 5 points Players that hit World Series Walk off Home Runs + the Pitchers that gave them up! 4 points 1933 New York Giants 1942 St. Louis Cardinals 1963 San Francisco Giants 1964 St. Louis Cardinals 1965 Los Angeles Dodgers 1972 Oakland Athletics 1983 Baltimore Orioles 2002 Oakland Athletics 2015 Washington Nationals 2017 Cleveland Indians 3 points 1894 Chicago Colts 1911 New York Giants 1913 Chicago Cubs 1922 Pittsburgh Pirates 1924 Cincinnati Reds 1933 Chicago Cubs 1947 Cleveland Indians 1947 New York Yankees 1959 Chicago White Sox 1962 Milwaukee Braves 1979 Kansas City Royals 1979 Houston Astros 1986 Toronto Blue Jays 1991 Chicago White Sox 1996 Los Angeles Dodgers 2 points 1900 Brooklyn Superbas 1932 Cleveland Indians 1953 Chicago White Sox 1957 Cincinnati Redlegs 1960 Detroit Tigers 1965 Cleveland Indians 1970 Atlanta Braves 1972 Chicago White Sox 1975 St. Louis Cardinals 1977 San Diego Padres 1970 California Angels 1984 Houston Astros 1988 Minnesota Twins 1998 Chicago White Sox 2003 Montreal Expos 2007 Colorado Rockies 2009 Florida Marlins 2011 Washington Nationals 1 point 1904 Boston Beaneaters 1908 Brooklyn Superbas 1912 New York Highlanders 1916 Philadelphia Athletics 1922 Philadelphia Phillies 1933 Boston Braves 1938 Philadelphia Phillies 1947 Philadelphia Athletics 1953 Pittsburgh Pirates 1958 Washington Senators 1967 Kansas City Athletics 1968 Houston Astros 1977 Cleveland Indians 1979 Atlanta Braves 1981 Pittsburgh Pirates 1981 New York Mets 1987 Cleveland Indians 1991 New York Yankees 1999 Kansas City Royals 1999 Minnesota Twins 2009 Oakland Athletics 1.

Time to open up the ol’ wallet (provided we survive and that is no guarantee at this point!) I will also be interested in an off-season deal with a team that takes the ‘80 Angels and/or ‘86 Blue Jays. I’ll make it worth your while!

Figure it's nigh time I came back. I was actually waiting on the signup period and then didn't notice for four days. I'll admit, I got bored of the Pirates/Sheikhs, there just really wasn't anywhere else to go after that. Probably should have retired the Sheikhs properly but what's done is done. In any case, let's see if I can't start over from the beginning and make things interesting. Teams: '74 NL All-Stars (5) '05 Athletics (3) '63 Reds (2) '97 Athletics (1)

With Beet back and my desire to avoid thinking about medicine 24/7 stronger than ever, I will also stick my neck back into the realm of making teams. I've talked this over with Smasher a bit before deciding to commit, so don't worry; the W's situation will be handled appropriately. Teams: 1967 AL All-Stars (4) 2007 Cardinals (3) 1888 Bridegrooms (2) 1991 Brewers (2) with tag-along cast of The Masked SS, Ed Walsh, and George Bradley. Roster, stadium, strategies, and logo whenever HulkaMatt bothers me about them.

Worth noting on the 1984 Rangers is a Tom Henke who, even though he didn't have a good year in 1984, would probably be your best reliever because Mogul looks at things on a career spectrum basis and not a season-by-season basis like Out of the Park does. e:fb
